Not quite as dark as planned

Success, nicely risen sourdough baguette. I’ve moved from 1050er (dark) to 550er a more sifted flour.

My wife's latest sourdough looks pretty effing good.

Hi. This is my first post on Mastodon so I thought I could introduce myself.
I’m Ana the creator of LadyLamb’s Fiber studio. I’m a #knitting designer, yarn spinner and textile crafts enthusiast. I’ll be sharing my journey here and I hope to see you around.

Made some dairy free spinach dip, from scratch, no soup mix packet. So of course I had to make some of my signature sourdough bread for ripping up to dip in it.

Such a yummy afternoon snack! This is about as open a crumb as I want in my sourdough, in fact this is a little too open for my tastes, but I was in a rush when I made this loaf so didn't press out as much air as I usually do before making my final loaf shape.

It's been a while but I got experimental today with some pumpkin flour I made from a large fall pumpkin we were gifted that I dehydrated then ground down.

Made some savory pumpkin buttermilk biscuits (in the US vernacular) to go with dinner tonight and for breakfast sandwiches next week.

There's also a bit of dried green onion, Dubliner cheese, and garlic in them. They came out pretty tasty. I think I can up the amount of cheese and garlic just a tad bit more though.

My revived sourdough starter is very lively. It seems that being dehydrated and stored for several years has done it no harm at all. Anyway, I used some of the discard to make a cinnamon raisin bread today. Waiting for it to cool before cutting didn’t really happen. It’s going to be great toasted for breakfast…if it lasts that long.

And if you are an avid food maker - baking/cooking/creating, I've set up a Group on Pxlfd.ca for sharing recipes. Just getting started so I'll populate it with my experiements over time, and would love to see yours if you are over there:

If anyone's curious here's what my painting project looks like, the bottom of the staircase has a low overhang and I'm about 1/3 of the way done with painting in the faux grout lines on the faux brick work.

At the top the stairs I have it all painted in. Will do some additional shading in the "grout" and putting texture on the bricks but this gives one a general idea of where its heading.

This stairwell used to be just boring AF white. Far more visually interesting now.

Been tied up with painting our front stairs stair well. What was boring white is now being painted as faux brick on two walls and a golden gradient down the two side walls.

So haven't had a lot of time for baking the past couple weeks. I did do a batch of sourdough English muffins for us and a Cinnamon Snowflake bread for the roofers who arrived today to install our metal roof.
